We're Cheddar Together! Help Frenship Fight Hunger

Our Goal: We are asking our Frenship community to come together to help us raise $28,800 - that's enough money to fill a semi-truck with mac & cheese! That's 82,000 boxes of mac & cheese that will help feed families right here in the South Plains, including many of our Frenship families.
 
Why Monetary Donations? Rather than paying retail prices, the South Plains Food Bank has bulk buying power with major manufacturers and retailers that allow them to stretch your dollar to buy more! Did you know, they can turn your $10 into 30 meals for families in need? That's why we are asking for monetary donations. 
 
Why Mac & Cheese? Who doesn't love the cheesy goodness of mac & cheese?! It's a staple that every kid loves and it's also one of the most requested items by food pantries and families served by the South Plains Food Bank. This non-perishable, easy to cook staple can also be stretched into multiple meals by adding extra veggies or protein. 
 
We know many of our families are struggling now more than ever with SNAP benefits delayed or cut, but we also know our Frenship community is incredible and always steps up to help those in need. Whether you're making a donation, sharing the fundraiser information to raise awareness, or simply sharing the resources available at the South Plains Food Bank to help a family in need - We Are Cheddar Together!
